5 Tips on Managing Millennials in the Workplace Posted: 07 Sep 2011 06:48 AM PDT By Terri Klass and Judy Lindenberger The Millennial generation was born between the years of 1977–1997 and are the youngest generation to enter the business world. Today's workplace also includes Generation X (born between 1965–1976), Baby Boomers (1946–1964) and Traditionalists, born between 1900 and 1945. Millennials grew up with school shootings, terrorist attacks, AIDS, gargantuan oil spills and the Internet. These things all influenced their view of the world. As children, they experienced everyone getting awards for sports and went to school when gold stars were handed out freely. As a result, Millennials want frequent feedback. They grew up with Baby Boomer parents, many who are self-professed workaholics, and therefore desire more work/life balance than their parents had. Millennials bring many gifts to the workplace. They are resourceful and able to multi-task. They can Google, email and write a report at the same time; they can comfortably find information through the Internet. They work well in team environments. They also want to make an immediate impact in their jobs and to move up quickly. As Millennials move into management and leadership positions, we predict that there will be an emphasis on them asking others for their opinions – as opposed to "it's my way or the highway." They will respect different points of view and opinions. Here are five tips to help you manage Millennials: Create an on-boarding experience for Millennials that helps them learn your company culture. Be crystal clear about company policies such as social media. Define performance expectations and explain why something needs to be done. Provide them with feedback – early and often. Judge them by what they accomplish rather than the number of hours they put in. Invest in personal development and training, like coaching and mentoring programs. To learn more about how to integrate the Millennials and understand what makes each generation tick, contact Judy Lindenberger at info@lindenbergergroup.com or Terri Klass at terri@terriklassconsulting.com.

How A Temp Position Can Build Your Career Posted: 07 Sep 2011 05:21 AM PDT Whether you are the lone temp, or working with other temps, temporary work is a hub for opportunities and conversation. More often than people realize, a temporary opportunity turns into a fantastic long term career. When you are working in a company on a contract, you should look at the position as a working interview for future opportunities.  Those opportunities don't necessarily always come from the company your at but by word of mouth. I can honestly say, while I own my successes, word of mouth is what gave me the initial chance to prove myself. I didn't come in with a specific skill set, I came in with great recommendations on other projects and learned as I went. People gave me the opportunity to grow my skills because of what they had heard about my work ethic, personality, networking abilities, etc.  I know that I am not unique.  You can turn a ho-hum position into a life long journey of successes as well, if you want. What I suggest :: 1.  Get to know everyone in the company, and let them get to know you. What are their career goals? Where did they come from? How long have they been with 'said' company?  What other companies have they worked for? 2.  Work your tail off and show how committed you are.  You don't have to be committed to a company necessarily ..but you do have to be committed to doing a great job on the assignment – to the end. 3.  Show interest for more. Get involved in networking events. This may take a bit of your free time but it will pay off.  Everyone knows someone who knows someone.  Get out there and meet those 2nd and 3rd connections. 4.  Finally, connect to all of your temporary co-workers on LinkedIn.  Request recommendations from them. Keep in touch with them long after your assignment.  As your career develops, so will theirs.  Those contacts may pay off big in 5 years. Bottom line?  Take advantage of every opportunity that you are given.  Nothing is minimal unless you insist it to be.  The opportunities are out there and the time is yours.  Do as I did/do…. OWN IT!!! … I'm Shannon, your personal LinkedIn Advisor, Staffing Consultant & Online Marketing Strategist! Over the last few years, I have been working diligently on establishing my own personal brand. Through that process, I have had a ton of failures and a few successes. I bring all of that experience to this website. My goal is to educate people on the value of branding themselves to become whatever it is they desire. While my intentions are sincere, I hope to bring humor and progressive thinking to the table so that the reader may not only enjoy my content but also be forced to think a bit out of their ordinary. We will explore new marketing techniques and tear down old, dingy mentalities. The fact of the matter is, no one is going to give you what you want. And, even after chasing your dreams, you will not succeed unless you're open to receiving. It's time to break away from old thinking and try something new. The time is now and the chance is yours. OWN IT!
